This Company is formed for leasing or purchasing Coal fields in the South Wales Basin, and working the collieries for export and have consumption. The great and increasing demand for South Wales coal both at home ancl. abroad, for steam and other purposes, preeients a most favourable opportunity for commencing and prosecuting a large and profitable business. The Board of Tr. tide Report stows that the exports from South Wales in 1062 amounted to b,378,971 tons. The returns for 1863 when published will show a great increase. Nearly a fourth par t of the total exports of the United Kingdom is from the ports of South Wales. The quantity thus exported is equatl to that from Newcastle and Sunder• land respectively. Thu coal now being supplied to the ports of Cardiff and N e wport is utterly inadequate in quantity to meet the pre sent demand, which is progressively increasing, and it has become a matter of serious consideration how the future demand is to be met, seeing that the commercial marine of the world is rapidly changing from sailing to steam vessels, whilst the working of foreign rialways, which has only lately commenced, will necessitate exports on a vast scale. The great value of the South Wales coal for steam and all other purposes is too well known to need explanation here, and great success is attending all well-regulated and careful workings. The present extraordinary demand has raised the average price from Bs. to lls. or 12s. per ton, the present official prices, The Company has secured, on advantageous terms, a lease for 50 years of extensive seams of coal in the barony of Abergavenny, identical with and forming portion of those now worked with great success by the Blaenavon Company and other coalowners. The average working thickness of these seams is 30 feet. On this property, which is in communication with all the railways in the district, the Company proposes to commence operations. From the actual'experience of adjacent collieries working the same seams, it has been proved that the coal can be raised and delivered in trucks on the railway, including royalty, at a cost of ss. per ton. The carriage to Newport is ls. 9d. per ton. It is- estimated that, when in full work, at least 300,000 tons per annum will be raised on this property alone, for whiela a• sale will be readily found ; and this, assuming the profit to be only ls. per ton upon the capital to be em ployed on this first operation (which will not exceed £75,000), would yield a profit of 20 per cent. There being no reservation of any kind for promoters or premiums for leases payable, the shareholders will obtain • 're benefit of the employment of the capital raised, • .. 'nary expenses being confined to the necessary ells ' rseme.nts. Applicalions for shares in the annexed form may be Linde to the brokers or bankers of the Company, or to the Secretary in London ; or to Messrs. Crawahay Bailey and Co., the Company's bankers at Newport, from any of whom prospectuses can be obtained. Where no allotment is made the deposit will be returned 7- 4 in full, and, should the number of shares allotted be less tr.. than that applied fur, the payment in excess will be applied towards the deposit.

In the old fable of the frogs and their king the discontented subjects of King LOG and the unhappy victims of King STORK had each great reason for complaint. In our happy country at the present moment we are blest with a Government which possesses the singular advantage of combining the evils of both of these celebrated systems of admini stration in a system of their own, which is, in fact— no system at all. The irritating interference of King STORK alternates with the apathetic inaction of King LOG until the disastrous consequences of this No-policy principle are affecting our national importance and undermining our national influence in the European counsels. As a proof of the esti mation in which our vacillating rulers are held by our good-natured friends across the water, a recent number of the Monde declares that " The howls of the British leopard no longer have the power of moving Europe. France laughed at them in 1860 at the time of the annexation of Savoy ; Russia did the same in 1863 with regard to the Polish ques tion ; Prussia and Austria go forward as though a great Power called England did not exist. Up to this time they have avoided the proclaiming the annulment of the protocols of 1852, as it was useless for them to complicate their military action by a diplomatic embarrassment. Success, however, em boldens them; they see England isolated, on bad terms with Russia on account of Poland, cool with France in consequence of the refusal of the Con gress, unfriendly with the Diet which drives them farther than they would wish to go, and they consider it is more important for them to satisfy the German feeling than listen to the menaces of Earl RUSSELL/ While, in terms,equally complimentary, the Opinione Nationale describes the English policy as " odiense et ridicule," and tells us that France regards with surprise and satisfaction our unwonted and unbe coming isolation. On the very first night of the Session Mr. DISRAELI, in terms of very natural indignation, described, with his happy sarcasm, the great weakness, and the great want of the No-Policy Administration. The Earl of DERBY, again, in the House of Lords, epitomised his sarcasm (one to precisely the same effect) in a most happy and alliterative phrase—to wit, " meddle and muddle." It did not, however, require the Leaders of the Opposition to inform us of a fact long since glaringly and grievously notorious. As Lord ABERDEEN, for the want of a timely decision, suffered the country, in his day, to "drift into a war," so Lord RUSSELL, for the want of that same statesmanlike quality—a quality the most indispensable of all in a ruler, whether civil or military—decision—is allowing the nation that trusts to his diplomacy to subside from that high position of power and influence which has hitheito been its own, into an attitude of unwonted inanity and unaccustomed humiliation. We have now the fall particulars of the last en counter with the Maories, and they serve to con firm the intelligence which had already reached us in outline both in regard to the triumph achieved over the enemy and the heavy loss of gallant men which cheluers our satisfaction. The rebels, as we know, succeeded in effecting their escape from Mere-Mere and entrenched themselves in a spot called Rangariri, about 14 miles higher up, if the troops were marched by land, although the distance is considerably greater by water, It was supposed by many that the Maories would not attempt to hold Rangariri after abandoning Mere-mere, a much stronger position. However, this opinion proved to be erroneous, as they concentrated all their energies upon it and held it with desperate resolution, General CAMERON, whose military dispositions have been greatly praised, was resolved to give the Maories no chance of escape a second time, and arranged for an assault to be made as soon as possible after the joint arrival of the military and naval forces. Rangariri is protected on two sides by the Waikari Lake, and its front has been very skilfully intrenched by the native engineers. The task occupied them, it is said, for the best part of a year, and the result has proved to be very formidable to even the bravest and most skilful assailants. It may be conjectured, however, that European science had something to do with the matter, since more than one deserter has been among them. The body of an ex-artilleryman was found in the trenches after the place was captured, and we do not suppose his former comrades wasted much regret upon his fate. Another is said to have been among the defenders, but he escaped. The place was strongly defended in point of numbers, the whole of the N'gatiawa, or proper Waikato tribe being within it. The number of Meories in the intrenchment amounted altogether to about 1,100, while the assaulting party were 1,200. The first assault on the landward side was a severe struggle, the embankment being high and the ditch deep and broad. Only two of the seven officers in the leading column escaped unwounded. The river front of the defences carried at the same time was less warmly contested—the natives perhaps being less sanguine of success from its inferior strength. But the greatest difficulty was to come. The Maories, who fled from the first line of land des fences, took refuge in a central position on the brow of a hill. The chief leaders of the defenders made their stand here, and the construction of the place seconded their efforts only too well. Four times was the assault made, each time without suc cess. Every officer who led the attack was either killed or dangerously wounded. Cummander MAYNE, who led the blue jackets of the Eclipse, and whose bravery has since been rewarded by promotion, was among those wounded in the attempt. The only means of access to the en trenchment was by a narrow opening through which only one could enter at a time, renderine , the task one of great difficulty. The General, perceiv i ng that heavy loss to our troops was resulting without any commensurate advantage, gave orders for the atta c k to be deferred until daylight, and the para pets undermined and blown up. When daylight came, however, a flag of truce appeared, and the chief who bore it called for some one who could speak Maori. The interpreter advanced, bat mean- While our men who took the flag as a sign of snr- render were over the walls [and filled the place. Under these circumstances there was nothing for it but unconditional surrender, the General promising them their lives. It is said that they only intended to parley so as to gain time for reinforcements, and this rumour receives some confirmation from the fact that, soon after the surrender, a party of 400 men, under WILLIAM THOMPSON, came up, and seeing the state of affairs went off by the way they had come. If such were the case, the mistake on the part of our men was a most fortunate one, as it saved further bloodshed. The General compli mented the Maories on the gallant resistance they had made, and they, it is said, showed no signs of depression or anxiety, feeling satisfied that their lives were safe, and chatting freely over the events of the war with the soldiers who had been their antagonists so shortly before. The skill of the Maories in handling firearms, and their ingenuity in constructing entrenchments, raises them out of the level of mere savages, and renders the task of subduing them at once difficult and dangerous. It is to be hoped that this great and decisive triumph will bring the war near its close. The capture of their stronghold, with 185 prisoners, must, we should hope, convince the natives of the 'ruitlessness of the struggle. According to the latest telegrams received at Melbourne the Maori King movement is considered at an end, WILLIAM THOMPSON, the so called King, has addressed the Governor, suing for peace on any terms. Sir G. GREY refused to parley with him until General CAMERON had hoisted the QUEEN'S flag on Nga ruiwakia, his headquarters, which it was reported the General had reached when the last news left. Matters seem therefore in a fair way for the re establishment of peace, but it must be peace on de finite terms. It will not do to have the embers of the war left smouldering on, ready to break out again in a year or two's time. We must have no more murdering of settlers, no interference with British laws. All this blood and treasure must not have been spent without securing us from a repeti tion of the campaign, The QUEEN'S authority must be thoroughly established and fully recog nised. An inquiry should be made into the tenure of native land, and it should be put once for all on a clear and regular footing, in accordance of course, as far as possible, with their laws and customs. It would be an act of great kindness to the natives, as well as one indispensable to the maintenance of peaceful relations. There has no doubt been mis management in the earlier stages of the quarrel, and the attempts at conciliation only made matters worse. We shall start after this war with the ad vantage of military prestige, having convinced the Maories that we are not afraid of them. That pres tige should be kept up by yielding to no unwarrant able demands, and insisting on a fair and reasonable administration of justice to settlers and aborigines alike. Mr. FITZGERALD deserves the thanks of the pub lie for his able endeavours to bring before the attention of the House the aubject of the capture of four British vessels by the Americans. In con sequence of the manner in which the question was taken up by the Government, the hon. member was obliged to withdraw his motion for the pro- duction of tho papers which related to these cases, including the decisions of the American Prize Courts. It is, however, very requisite that these matters should be fully discussed, and the public put in possession of the circumstances so far as they have been ascertained to have taken place. The most glaring instance of wrong-doing and violation of international laws ie in the case of the Saxon, in which the mate, a British subject, was shot by a Federal officer when unarmed and unresisting. Mr. FITZGERALD very properly com mented strongly on this fact, and expatiated on the great injury and injustice committed. He said he could not " allude to this case without feelings of pain, amounting to indignation, be cause th 3 result had been the murder of a British subject, under the British flag, and in British waters." All that has transpired relating to the notice taken by her MAJESTY'S Government of this disgraceful affair has been that they have in timated to the Federal Government that if such a thing really has happened they consider the Ame rican officer referred to ought to be put upon his trial for murder. The general feeling of the House was with Mr. FITZGERALD, when he declared that such a representation was not sufficient, and unworthy of the British Government. Well might he assert that their language ought to be to this effect—" We send to you the facts as they have been proved in evidence, and if they are correct we demand as a right that the ofgcer shall be put upon his trial, and receive the punishment due for his offence." To this decisive language and straight forward exposition oipolicy, of caurse the answer given by Ministers was lame and impotent as usual. Nothing definite was stated at all, and the Attorney- General remarked, that if the information in respect to the Saxon is correct a most barbarous murder was committed. but that he had no doubt that the United States Government will hasten to make re paration for the injury. Is this the manner in which a flagrant case of this kind should be treated ? Lord PALMERSTON, in his boastful remarks, referred to the case of the Trent as proof that the Americans were always ready to pay attention to our just demands, and atone for injuries inflicted. But the noble lord' contrives very conveniently to forget that the tone of our policy has materially altered of late, and that if the English Government had con tented themselvee with total inactivity of words and actions, Messrs. MASON and SLIDELL would never have been given up by their captors. The noble lord showed his usual acuteness in putting forward as a predecent the only instance in which his Cabinet have shown any spirit of resistance, or dis played any eff3rt at promptitude. That circum stance of the Trent took place at the outset of this protracted and disastrous contest in America ; and during all the complicated events that have since occurred, and the many important points for decision which have been brought before the Government, no similar instance of energy has been evinced to maintain our rights, protect our interests, or vindicate our honour. In the face of all the communications made by Mr. FITZGERALD, most of which have already been patent to the public, it is insulting to common sense, and a direct abnegation of their position as defenders of Brttieh interests, for the Attorney-General to de clare, and for the nitre Minister to ratify his asser tion, that there is no reason to mistrust the equity and independence of the tribunals of the United States. Then the noble lord attempts to read a lec ture to those who had been presumptuous enough to debate this subject at all by giving it as his opinion that it is prejudicial to the good understand ing Rf the two Governments, which are on good terms, to suggest doubts as to the perfect fairness which characterises their proceedings. No one dis putes the datum laid down of the mutual under standing that exists between Governments, they are too good terms for the honour of the English name and the welfare of the English subject. Things must have come to a pretty pass, and the most exigent friendship can hardly wish for more than that murder should be hushed up, supposed THE SUN, LONDON, MONDAY EVENING, FEBRUARY 15, 1864. not to have been committed, or will doubtless be all aet right. Time was when the unprovoked asauit on a British subject, unarmed and unresist ing, would have been made grounds for searching investigation, and not trifled with in this manner. Lord 'PALMERSTON'S vehement attempt to make things out to be just contrary to what they are was a signal failure. He thus remarked—" We have heard this evening the cuckoo-cry frequently urged in this House by those who like general assertions better than particular proofs, that the Government are in the habit of bullying the weak and truckling to the strong. I entirely deny it." Some might be satirical enough to remark that the noble lord's own speech was a case in paint as to words without a warranty, but lie goes on to bring for ward his rare trophy of ministerial firm ❑ess and zeal for the notional honour, the affair of the Trent. Why should so much more energy have been displayed in one instance than the other. In some respects, Lord PALMERSTON only makes his case the worse, for it looks as if the Government, of which he is the chief, knew their duty, but did not care to perform it. The fact is, that all this talk about the inexpediency of -discuss ing these questions is a very convenient excuse for putting off the question, and averting the necessity of awkward revelations. If Ministers had fulfilled their tasks efficiently, there would have been no need for the present debates at all, The papers would all have been laid before Parliament in due order, with no needless reticence, and no unworthy shuffling. Tne proper means would have been adopted for the protection of British interests, and all those who infringed them would have been re minded of their outrage, and called to account. Had such a policy actuated our Government, how different would have been the state of things from what it is at present. General disappointment is the prevailing sentiment with regard to our foreign policy ; and Lord R. CECIL truly represented the popular opinion when he said that "He did not believe that the British people would much longer endure the degradation to which such behaviour on the part of the Government subjected us. This case and that case might perhaps be overlooked, but he was greatly mistaken if a bitter feeling of indig nation was not rising up and spreading every day." This is a sad reflection to make upon the conduct of those entrusted with the control of affairs at this critical juncture : but the mortifying nature of the observations does not detract from their truthful. ness.

That the fence•time for England and Wales he 168 days, as provided for in the Scotch and Irish Acts for 1862 and 1863. 2. That power should be given to the commissioners to define ancient rights for fishing by fixed engines. 3. That an assessment be levied on engines and nets in aid •f the funds required for the preservation of rivers. 4. That further provision be made to prevent the pol lution of rivers. 5. That minimum as well as maximum penalties shall be specified. 6. That justices in quarter sessions should have power to fix a fence-time for trout within their several counties. (Signed) SArrou iv, President F.P.A. POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTION.—The ordinary an- nnal general meeting of the shareholders in this institution was held on Saturday, at the office in Regent street—the Rev. J. B. Owen in the chair. The report of the manager congratulated the shareholders upon the suc cess of the company, owing in a great measure to the at tractions of the illusion patent, which was now protected by the decision of the Lord Chancellor. The receipts for the past year had been £13,000, as against £lO,OOO in the Exhibition year. The report then referred to the altera tions required in the laboratory, which was now almost useless for conducting experiments; and concluded by ex pressing confidence in the future prosperity of the institu tion. The report of the directors paid a high compliment to the exertions of Professor Pepper on behalf of the insti tution. Since the last meeting the Prince of Wales had consented to become patron, and it was proposed that in future it should be called by its original title of the Royal Polytechnic Institution. During the past half .year the receipts at the doors had amounted to £6,841 9s 9d, as com pared with £6,580 98 2d on the previous half-year, being upwards of £261 more than the amount received in anypre vious six months. During the past year the institution has received its first legacy of £l5O from Mr. Gompertz. The whole of the premises are unlet, including the house in Cavendish-square. The directors recommended the pur chase of the unexpired term of lease of the large theatre for the sum of £2,500, thereby reducing the rental from £250 to £5O per annum. The directors also recommended a dividend of 5 per cent , for the half lea'' , being at the rate of 10 per cent. per annum, 10 per cent. to be written off from stock and plant, and 5 per cent. from leasehold. The report then referred to the high moral tone of the amuse ments produced at the institution, and concluded by stating the great success of the evening classes, under the superin tendence of the Rev. Mr. Mackenzie. The financial state ment showed the gross receipts for the half year, including a balance of £1,807 7s ld, to be £9,249 178 4d, and the ex penditure, including £9lO written off for stock, plant, and leasehold, £4,823 18 10d, leaving a balance of £4,026 1886 d, which, after payment of dividend, would leave £3,347 11s 6d to be carried forward to next account, —On the motion of the chairman, seconded by Mr. Gregson, M.P., the re port was adopted. Mr. Mayhew moved, "That the direc tors be empowered to purchase the lease of the large theatre for £2,500, at the reduced ground rent of £5O per Annum." Mr. Thomson Hankey, M.P., seconded the resolution, which was agreed to after some discussion. The dividend as re commended was then declared. On the motion of Mr. S. Mosley it was resolved that all shares not paid up by the let May shall be declared forfeited. The meeting was then made special. and a resolution was agreed to that the in stitution should for the future be called the "Royal Poly technic Institution. AMERICAN WINTER AMUSEMENTS. —A fancy dress skating carnival was got up at New York last month, and was attended in the course of the afternoon and evening by 20,000 persona. A partial thaw made the condition of the ice so unfavourable that many ladies and gentlemen would not wear their fancy dresses. " Still," says the New York Times," there were tasteful and comic costumes, among which was noticed the full dress of the Scotch Highlander. One of those dresses was worn by the daughter of the president of the pond. The Turkish, Chinese, Italian, and French peasantry and different Zouave uniforms were among the fancy costumes worn. The comic ones were in representation of the boar, clown, chris-kringle, belsnichols, and a variety of others, including the dresses worn in the inhabitants of the more frigid climes. To such a degree of perfection has the healthful and invigorating exercise of skating come within the past three or four years that any number of couples can be seen keeping time to the music by dancing, waltzing, &c., in a highly creditable manner." In Canada sleighing seems to be the favourite sport. " Few prettier eights are presented in the streets of Montreal," says a Canadian paper, " than the procession of the Montreal Driving Club—the turn out of handsome horses and vehicles covered with the furs, which not only make a sleigh feel but look like the perfection of comfort, all moving along to the merry tinkling of the bells. On Tuesday the meet was in great force, some 30 or 40 sleighs being out, General Sir F. Williams leading with four h o rses. Major Penn also drove four in hand. Captain M'Farlan, of the Military Train , spor ted a ' unicorn,' lir. Muir, Captain Crosby, of the 60 th , a nd some other gentle men drove tandem." The weather in Canada this winter is described as very like our own—generally mild weather, , tut With 011 Q Or two visitations of excessive cold. LATEST INTELLIGENCE.

She landed 114 sacks of mails and two passengers at Queenstown, and proceeded at 9.30 a.m. for Liverpool. A DRAFT OF 500,000 MEN ORDERED. NEW YORK, FEB. 2, Evening. President Lincoln has ordered a draft of 500,000 men, to serve for three years or during the war. The draft is to be made on the Nth of March, crediting and deducting therefrom so many as may have been enlisted or drafted prior to March 1, and not heretofore credited. This order includes the 300,000 men called for in October last, and is in effect an additional call for 200,000 men. The Republican journals support President Lin coln's order; but the opposition press attack the Administration for continually declaring the weak ness and exhaustion of the South, and yet stiil calling for such large forces. Lougstreet's late movements appear to have been made with the remote object of investing Knoxville, but principally to gain possession of the fertile valley of French Broad River, from whence the Federals obtained supplies and forage. In this he was successful, The Federal retreat into Knoxville was conducted with much loss and confusion. Southern despatches from Longstreet's command to the 27th ult. state that the Federals had evacu ated Taze well, retreating towards Cumberland Gap, The Confederates afterwards occupied the town. It is still asserted that the main body of Johnstox's army has abandoned Dalton ; Hardee reinforcing Mobile and the other portion rein- forcing Longstreet. Since the weather has moderated the Confede rates have resumed operations in Western Vir ginia. They have occupied Petersburg and Bur. lington, the Federals evacuating those places. The Confederate General Rosser, after four hours fighting, captured on the 30th a Federal train of 80 waggons, guarded by 800 men, en route for Petersburg. General Lee issued an order on the 22d ult., stat ing that the temporary reduction of rations was caused by circumstances beyond the control of those charged with the support of the army, but it was hoped this would be of short duration. The army had proved that the country could require no sacrifice too great for its patriotism. Admiral Farragut's fleet arrived at New Orleans on the 20th and 21st. General Banks and Admiral Farragut are said to be perfecting arrangements to attack Mobile. Advices from Charleston to the 28th state that the shelling of the city continued. Fort Sumter fired five shots on that day against the Federal positions on Cumming's Point. The harbour ob structions are said not to be materially injured. The Post declares it has trustworthy information that General Gilmore will shortly come North. Several of his best regiments have been sent from Charleston, and others would shortly follow. General Grant was entertained on the 30th at a public dinner at St. Louis. The tone of the Southern press is very cheerful. The Richmond Sentinel says there is a great gene ral revival in the spirits and confidence of the people relative to the war. The army is in the best spirits ; and the welcome news comes from Tennessee and Virginia that the troops are volunteering by bri gades and regiments to re-enlist for the war. General Banks has issued orders that, for sani tary reasons, the labourers on plantations will not be allowed to leave. The World considers this as substituting serfdom for slavery. General Banks has declared that all plantations in Louisiana not under cultivation by February, will be considered abandoned States, and taken pos session of by Government. The House of Representatives has passed a bill reviving the rank of lientenant-general, and recom mending its bestowal upon General Grant. Southern journals state that the Federal Govern ment insist upon Butler's recognition, as a sine qua non, for the exchange of prisoners. The Governor of Tennessee has ordered the elec tion of State officers in Tennessee on March 5 No disloyal persons can vote, and stringent caths will be exacted from voters. The opposition press declare that the move ments made by the Administration for reconstruc tion in Louisiana, Arkansas, and Tennessee are not bona fide efforts for the restoration of the Union, but are made with the view of carrying the Presidential election, as all voters taking the Abolition oaths will vote the Republican ticket. The Solicitor to the War Department has de cided that foreigners enlisted as substitutes for drafted men are not entitled to be discharged for the service by reason of alienage. The steamor Vesta has been run ashore and burnt, off Wilmington. Advices from Matamoras to the 13th state that another revolution has again placed Cortinas in power. During the revolutionary movement the Federal commander at Brownsville sent three re giments across the river. One regiment passed the night opposite the American Consul's house, and the following morning escorted the Consul to Brownsville, bringing away 2,000,000 dollars be longing to American subjects. Juarez is expected at Matamoras. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE. NEW YORK, FEB. 2 (Evening). (Per the Canada.) Money easier. Gold 571 per cent. premium.

The Federals have re-occupied Burlington, Western Virginia, driving the Confederates south. ward. The Confederates have made a raid along the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, burning the bridges across the Potomac at the north branch of Patter- son's Creek. The Federals drove them off, and pursued them with cavalry, and the rAilroad is again in working order. The Confecicrates have burnt the steamer LEN i running between Gallipoli, Ohio, and Charleston Western Virginia, captUring General Scammon who was on board. out. 600 Confederate cavalry are threatening an attack on Natchez, Mississippi: Two brigades of Louisiana and Texas troops are marching to Mississippi River to temporarily blockade it, and get the army from the last trans. Mississippi department. it is officially reported from Newborn that the Federal outposts at Bachelor's Creek have been driven in by a Confederate force estimated at 15,000 men. The Federals fell back, destroying their camps. Simultaneously the Confederates advanced on the south side of the Trent river, and were re pulsed. The Confederates were about to cut the railroad between Newbern and Morehead city. The Confederates captured an expedition of 80 men sent by General Butler up the James River, and de stroyed an armed transport sent to rescue the Federals. Confederate Gen. Roddy has been driven south of the Tennessee river with the loss of his trains. A bill has been reported in the House of Repre sentatives, appropriating 529 million dollars for the army expenses in the year ending June, 1865. The Houses of Representatives has passed a re solution directing the Committee of Ways and Means to inquire into the expediency of increas ing the duties and taxes on foreign and domestic articles of luxury, so as to produce an annual re venue of 350 millions. Also, a further resolution restricting the Bank circulation to 300 millions, and to issue 200 millions in bonds for the redemption of the currency. The Senate has modified the Spirits Bill, in creasing the tax on whisky, after July and prior to January next, to 70 cents—after January, to 80 cents.

MARK TO THE ARMY. SONDERBURO, Feb. 6. " Soldiers,—Not alone by valour on the battle field, but also by enduring with patience want of rest, cold, and all sorts of privations and exertions, the soldier has to prove his fidelity to his'king and his love for his country. There are few among you who have not proved in battle against an over whelming foe, that you have not degenerated since Fredericia and Idstedt. You have all had ample opportunity to give brilliant proofs of efficiency and endurance, and you have preserved a cheerful courage under long and severe hardships. " Soldiers ! receive for this the' thanks of your King. The Dannewerke has been abandoned. The guns which were to have curbed the arrogance of the enemy are in their hands. ',Fhe country lies open to the enemy. I deeply feel with you what we have thereby lost. But, my friends, I have but this one army for the defence of the country, and your military leaders were of opinion that I would no longer have an army if I did not withdraw you. They, therefore, came to the determination to retreat. "Soldiers! I stand alone in the world with my people. Up to the present time no power has de clared that it will support us by acts. But I depend upon you and my fleet. You are ready to shed your blood, but we are few against many, and it must, therefore, be dearly purchased. " May the Almighty grant that the hour of re venge may soon strike for all the violence and in justice which has been done to me and my people. " CHRISTIAN, R. "D. C. MONRAD." FRANCE.

A letter, dated Corfu, Jan. 25, has the follow Dg:- " There is nothing further to report on the progress made in dismantling the fortifications. General Wynne, of the Engineers, is confidently expected to arrive from England by the next steamer with the full instructions on the sub ject. A hoard of officers is ordered to meet to report upon the disposal of the military stores, and to decide what shall be sent to England, Gibraltar, or Malta, and what are to be sold upon the spot. " I understand that it has been decided that Vido and Fort Abram alone are to be demolished, and that the guns only are to be removed from the Citadel and Fort Neuf. It is not at all improbable that this decision has been come to, and, although I do not vouch for its truth, I have every reason to believe the information to be correct. Both the Citadel and Fort Neuf, in their present state, would be useless for defence, and the opinion is generally entertained by military men that they could not be hold for a single hour against the fire of modern artillery. Possibly, out of deference to the opinions of the lonians and Greeks, it is intended not to interfere with them further than remov ing the guns, and they may certainly be so left with per fect safety. Fort Abram, however, has just been repaired at an expense of £30,000, and it ranks next in impor tance to Vido, with which, however, it can scarcely be compared, It is the westernmost of the fortresses, facing the harbour or roadstead on the north, and having a glacis on the south and west sides ; it would no doubt be able to make a very respectable resistance. Fort Neuf lies to the east of Fort Abram, from which it is separated only by a road leading to the suburb of Manduchio. It also faces the harbour on the north, overlooks the town on the east, a d has a glacis running round the remaining two sides. Be tween the last named fort and the citadel lies the town of Corfu, at the extreme east of which it is situate. his built on a large rock jutting out into the sea, having two peaks, on the westernmost whereof is the apparatus for the signal ing of vessels, and the view from this point is one of the best to be obtained in Corfu. The Citadel is separated from the mainland on the west by a ditch which is spanned by a drawbridge. It occupies a cmunAnding position, and forms a very prominent and beautiful object. In it are the general's house and officers' quarters, the hospital, the military church and school rooms, powder magazines, &C., and commodious barracks for a large number of troops. It is furnished with every appliance for cleanliness and health, acid as a depot for soldiers, for which purpose it is now used, it is highly desirable, but, as previously stated, both it and Fort Neuf would be of little avail in modern warfare." FALL OF RAILWAY ABCHES.—On Friday evening, about nine o'clock, the inhabitants of Brixton were greatly alarmed by a sudden loud and dead sound, which was soon ascertained to have proceeded from the falling in of 17 or 18 acres of the South London Railway, now in course of erection—the whole exteut of the line crossing above the Chatham and Dover Railway, from the Green Man, Cold Harbour lane, to the Barrington road, being entirely destroyed.
